Please watch in a brightly lit room

and sit well away from the television.

What? Who are you?

Powerful miracle coming right now

Popping, magical, wonderful

Lyrical, comical, falling in love, melting

MiraKurumi

There are miracles that start with a kiss, you know?

You're there, whether it's rain or shine

So I can always keep on going

If I became an angel with wings and flew

I'd go to a shining chapel beyond the Milky Way

And ring the wedding bell

Don't worry, don't mind it, when I cry, it's because I'm happy

I'll protect you and I'll hug you tight to my breast

Powerful miracle coming right now

Popping, magical, wonderful

Lyrical, comical, falling in love, melting

MiraKurumi

Hurry, hurry! Let's go on ahead, just the two of us!

Karinka-chan...

Karinka-chan, what are you doing to Master?!

We're just holding hands.

Why don't you hold hands with Saki too?

What a nice child she is.

Master belongs to Kurumi!

He's my Nakahito!

How dare you?! You're only my kid sister!

Now I have another source of trouble.

What did you say?!

In any case, the reason we came to Izumo

is to locate Dr. Ayanokoji's secret laboratory

and to look for clues regarding the people who kidnapped him!

Don't fight over silly things! Do you understand?

You can't do that!

Kurumi! Karinka!

Stop it, both of you.

No! It's Karinka-chan's fault!

I'm not doing anything bad!

It isn't about who's wrong. We have to cooperate with Dr. Amagi.

But...

Your master's orders are absolute!

We're going.

No, I don't know.

Perhaps if you asked those training

at the waterfall in the mountains behind us...

How was it?

They said they've never seen anyone resembling his description.

And we came all the way to Izumo...

Let's ask some other people.

Buckwheat

Noodle Soup

Oh, dear.

The soup is so sweet and delicious!

It really is delicious.

I'm full. You can have the rest, Nakahito.

Here, say ah.

What are you doing?! You're supposed to be my big sister!

So what?!

Both of you, that's enough.

I sense something.

There's someone here.

You must be Kurumi, Saki, and Karinka.

Well...

Is Dr. Ayanokoji not here?

How do you know Dr. Ayanokoji?

He was kidnapped?

I see.

So it has turned out just as the Doctor had feared it would.

This way, please.

Who in the world are you?

This is...

This is the laboratory that Dr. Ayanokoji built himself

on the land where he first alighted.

That's...

A picture of Kurumi.

Why is it here?

You were all supposed to awaken here.

And I, who was built even before that,

was supposed to watch over that process.

What? Then you're a Steel Angel too?

Yes.

Pardon me for my belated introduction.

My name is Nadeshiko.

I have been guarding this place by the orders of the Doctor.

You said that things had turned out as the Doctor had feared,

but what did you mean?

The people who kidnapped him most likely belong to the Academy.

Academy?

It is where we were built.

Oh, I never knew it had a name like that.

What is this Academy?

It is a group of scientists who have come from the future

in order to change the history of mankind.

Dr. Ayanokoji was also one of them.

From the future? You mean the Doctor is from the future?

The Doctor did not agree with them

and ran away from the Academy.

"Their way of thinking concerning the Angel Hearts is wrong."

That is what the Doctor always used to say.

What was it that Dr. Ayanokoji was trying to accomplish?

What was he trying to do by using Kurumi and the others?

He wished to use the power of his newly-developed

Angel Heart Mark II to protect all of mankind...

No, to protect the entire world.

And for that, a powerful, superior mystic was necessary.

You must be the mystic that the Doctor was seeking.

And...

You are the only one that is loaded with a Mark II, correct?

Where is the other one?

The organization called Academy most likely has it.

I see.

Master, Kurumi doesn't understand what's going on at all.

The fate of this world

hangs on the existence of Angel Heart Mark IIs.

And on the powers of the mystics, who are the only ones

that can control the Steel Angels loaded with Mark IIs.

What are you grinning about?

I'm happy.

The power of Master's love for Kurumi will save the world.

Oh, that.

It isn't just "that". The power of love is amazing.

Too bad, but Nakahito's love already belongs to me.

That can't be possible!

Yes, it is. We kissed on the train, you know?

Smooch, right on the lips.

You're lying!

Then why don't you ask him yourself?

They said my powers are needed to protect the world, but...

I've never even succeeded once as a priest of Onmyou.

Master!

Kurumi-chan...

Master, is it true that you kissed Karinka-chan?

Well...

What? It's true?!

But it was an accident.

Master, you are the only one for Kurumi.

Is that not true for you, Master?

I didn't say that.

Master, who do you love, Kurumi or Karinka-chan?

Which is it?

Which? But I've only just met Karinka-chan, so...

Just about Kurumi, then.

Do you love Kurumi?

I don't really know,

but being with you cheers me up.

I love you, Master!

I can't breathe.

I'm sorry.

Kurumi-chan, would you leave me alone for now?

There's something I want to think about.

Help.

Nakahito, help me.

Lend me your powers.

I need your powers.

Master!

Master...

We've Arrived in Izumo!

We will fight on for tens of thousands of years

For the sake of the shiny days in the crevices of time

The city that sleeps under the moonlight

The starry sky that you and I gazed up at

The jewels at the bottom of the hourglass

Right now, I don't have the warmth we shared

But because I believe in chance encounters

I'll be waiting with a smile for the day that's sure to come

I will still be the same as when we first met

Forever

Master, where have you gone, leaving Kurumi behind?

Master!

Next time, Steel Angel Kurumi, Episode 18:

"That Can't Be True!"

It's not true that we can't see each other, is it, Master?

That Can't Be True!
